Still long way to go since current NAV is just at 1.36XX

Equities Weekly: Sell Off In The Red Dragon Gets Everyone Talking [10 Jul 15]

Stock markets around the world as a whole were mixed over the week ended 10 July 2015, with the MSCI AC World Index declining -0.48%. While investment sentiment remains weighed down over the Greek situation, US equities remained in the positive territory, with the benchmark S&P 500 increased by 0.75% over the week. European equities, as represented by the Stoxx 600 index, rebounded 1.85% over the week, with the slight rebound in the EUR partially boosting returns. Japan's Nikkei 225 index however, declined -3.80% over the week.

Asian and emerging markets as a whole also incurred losses during the bouts of risk aversion seen last week. The MSCI Emerging Markets index decreased -3.34%, while the MSCI Asia ex Japan index decreased -3.89% over the week. While the local Chinese equity market has seen recent declines starting from the first week of June, panic and fear gripped the markets last week as local Chinese equities sold off on Tuesday and Thursday (7 and 8 July) – with the Shanghai Composite index and the Shenzhen CSI 300 index seeing hefty intraday declines in the ranges of between 5% to 8%! The panic has also spread to other equity markets, with the Chinese offshore market (represented by the HSML 100 index) selling off as well and ending the week -5.31% lower (see Meltdown In China-Town?). Other Asian markets like Taiwan and South Korea also saw declines, with their equity markets incurring losses of -5.44% and -4.04% respectively. Southeast Asian markets in general held up slightly better from the sell-offs seen in East Asian countries, with the Lion City, Malaysia and Thailand seeing their equity markets decline -2.11%, -1.08% and -0.93% respectively over the week.

Crude oil prices, as represented by WTI crude, fell -6.66% in MYR terms, closing with a price of USD 52.74 when the week ended.

1H 2015 Top And Bottom Equity Funds: China Funds Lead The Way

MARKET PERFORMANCE IN 1H 2015

Over the past 6 months, Mr. Market has been throwing its tantrum over issues such as the Greek debt deal, China’s accommodative monetary policies and the timing of the Fed rate hike, sending shockwaves through the global equity markets. This has resulted in volatile swings within the equity markets and market players have, since then, become relatively more cautious and sensitive in response to the development of these key events.

Global equities posted rather muted performance in 2Q 2015, with the MSCI AC World index up by merely 0.8% for the quarter. Within the developed market space, both the US and Europe registered tepid return of 0.8% over the quarter while the Japanese equity market delivered a decent return of 4.6% in the same period (partly owing to the depreciation of yen against the ringgit). Emerging Market (EM) and Asia ex-Japan regions, likewise, followed their developed counterparts, with the former delivering a 0.8% gain while the latter increasing marginally by 0.6%.

Elsewhere, onshore Chinese equity market (A-share) fared relatively well as compared to the markets under our coverage. The China-A shares posted a strong gain of 11.6% over the quarter on financial reforms and the PBOC’s aggressive rate cuts, albeit with much volatility due to the curbing of margin trading by the government officials. The central bank’s aggressive monetary decisions also contributed positively to the Chinese H-shares and the Hong Kong equity market, with these markets returning 4.9% and 6.5% respectively. Within the EM and Asia ex Japan regions, commodity-based economies such as Indonesia (-12.0%), Brazil (-10.4%), Australia (-5.3%) and Thailand (-2.7%) saw their equity markets in the red over the quarter on the back of weak commodity price.

CONCLUSION

Looking ahead, equity markets are likely to be in for more volatility with the uncertainty looming over the timing of the Fed rate hike. Nevertheless, we expect equity markets to fare better in a growth-centric environment as equity asset class tends to perform better in rising yields environment.

With the expectation of a weakening ringgit moving forward, we urge local investors to have exposure to foreign equity markets as investors are poised to gain from foreign currency translation aside from the benefit of geographical diversification and the potential equity returns of investing overseas. Investors can consider having an overweight position within the Asia ex-Japan region as they present more attractive investment opportunities as compared to their developed market counterparts.
